The ICC has accepted the decision of the Sri Lanka Cricket Board to act quickly to an incident that took place at the end of the third ODI match between Sri Lanka and India on Monday. With India requiring just 1 run to win, Sri Lanka bowler Suraj Randiv bowled a no-ball which secured the victory for India and denied Virender Sehwag’s opportunity to reach a century. Having found guilty by this incident, the Sri Lanka Cricket Board decided to suspend Randiv for a one-day international match.

They announced, Randiv will not be able to play Thursday's match against New Zealand. ICC chief executive Haroon Lorgat said the Spirit of Cricket is basic of their sport and it is pleasing to see their members in such a decisive manner. As far as the ICC is concerned it was an unfortunate incident and the matter is now closed.
